Cheese is a wonderful food to say the very least! You can do so much with cheese – eat it plain, bake with it, include it in scrumptious dishes, and so much more. Who doesn’t love cheese? And there’s so many different varieties to choose from – LeRule, Boursin, Cheddar, Sharp Cheddar, Gouda, Medium Cheddar, Havarti, Pepper Jack, and the list goes on.
After my surgery, I thought I would never love food again, it seemed like every little thing that I stuck in my mouth made sick. Gone were the days of greasy goodness and tasty bread products – I hated them now. Four months after surgery, my life started to look up and I discovered my new found passion was cheese.
Prior to surgery, I was never a big cheese fan. Most of my cheese intake was inside a burger or maybe a quesadilla or taco. When I found my new love of cheese, I was so excited to have something I enjoyed eating again. Since then my husband calls me a “cheese-a-holic.“ A day doesn’t go by without me consuming some type of cheese.
My current cheese of the moment is Tillamook Pepper Jack (shown below). It is to die for – rich, has tang, and oh-so smooth that it melts in your mouth. I blame the demo lady at Costco for ever letting me sample it. It was so good after sampling it that I just had to buy it and now I’m in love.
Tillamook also makes many other great products – yogurt, butter, sour cream, and ice cream. I am hoping to go to their visitor’s center in 2010. At the visitor’s center you can apparently take self-guided tours, watch them make cheese, and learn more about their products. Has anyone ever gone there before?
